Foil Packs are an absolute when we go camping. This is a tradition for our family.

Large pkg of ground beef

bag of potatoes

yellow onions

green and red peppers

garlic, salt, and pepper

olive oil

butter

Shrimp is optional

Lay out foil squares, in the middle add loose hamburger (the amount needed to make a patty), sliced potatoes, onion, and peppers. Top with butter and olive oil and spices. Wrap up and bury in hot coals for about 10-20 minutes depending on the heat of the coals. We make about 5 packs for our family and we have plenty of it left over.

Slice cucumbers with the skin, slice tomatoes once, dice your onion. Mix all ingredients in a large bowl according to preference. Allow to sit in the refrigerator for at least an hour to the flavors can mix.

Place roast in the crock pot and cover with soda and water. Cook until tender. Shred or place in food processor. Add brown sugar, honey, and bbq sauce according to your taste and serve on buns.
Yes, it's that easy!

Hint: I like to make this with BBQ beans and add some of the beef to the beans

Thursday: Grilled pork tenderloin- I will marinate this in balsamic vinegar and olive oil for the day before i slice it down the middle and throw it on the grill. I will serve this with grilled asparagus. (it's in season)
